Do you need grease filter exchange in Shover's Green?
Every fry, grill and sauté sends grease-laden vapour upwards. The filters catch much of it, and day by day they load up until the air can barely get through.
Clients typically contact us when they notice something like this:
- A canopy that drips grease
- Smoke and heat lingering under the hood
- A canopy running with filters missing
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
Church and community hall kitchens, near Shover's Green Baptist Chapel or anywhere around Shover's Green, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

Grease filter exchange in Shover's Green
Across Shover's Green, our filter exchange suits restaurants, pubs, cafés, schools, care homes and other kitchens, from a single canopy to several. We can come before or after service, so cooking is not interrupted. If you’re dealing with poor airflow through the filters and drips falling from the filters onto equipment, we can put it right, from school and hospital kitchens, mesh filters and wall canopies onwards.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Grease, kitchens and Shover's Green
At about 37 miles from central London, Shover's Green sits well inside the area we cover. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. Food hygiene inspections in Shover's Green are the job of Wealden council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Ticehurst House Hospital about 1.6 miles east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Wadhurst Castle is about 1.6 miles north-west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
Shover's Green is about 7 miles south-east of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in East Sussex.

What the work involves, part by part
School, care home and staff kitchens
Lighter kitchens can often go longer between changes. The interval is set to fit.
The plenum
Behind the filters sits the plenum, where air gathers before the duct. It collects whatever grease the filters miss.
When something else is needed
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Grease already built up in the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
- An extract that was undersized from the start
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which need odour control
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Restaurants and pubs
- Wall canopies
- Island canopies
- School and hospital kitchens
- Mesh filters
- Baffle filters

What else we do in Shover's Green
Shover's Green: your questions answered
Do you work overnight in Shover's Green?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Shover's Green needn’t be disturbed. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Which council inspects kitchens in Shover's Green?
In Shover's Green, it’s Wealden council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
How long does the visit take?
It depends on the size of the system, but for many sites it takes less than an hour in most kitchens. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Do you handle baffle and mesh filters?
We work with both baffle and mesh filters. We check what’s in your canopies first and plan the exchange around them.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find and the report sets out why.
Can damaged filters stay in the canopy?
A badly damaged filter should be replaced. We’ll tell you which ones and why when we find them.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What happens if it’s left?
For any kitchen in Shover's Green, filters can’t stand in for a full TR19 clean. They do help keep the system in better shape between cleans and the canopy and plenum stay cleaner. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Shover's Green is calmer for everyone.

Multi-site and managed buildings
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. Somewhere like Shover's Green, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We count and measure the filters in every canopy.
- Together we set how often the filters should be changed.
- Each visit starts with the used filters being removed.
- We fit clean filters and check they sit snugly in the housing.
- Anything we notice, such as bent filters or a dirty plenum, is pointed out.
How to prepare
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
